Descrption:
This trail/sidewalk system runs primarily along the north bank of the St Joseph River. The Riverwalk section runs from the South Bend Dam to the IU-South Bend campus, while the 1 mile of rail-trail runs from the South Bend Dam up to Angela Boulevard.

The Riverwalk section is bikeable but can be narrow and rough like sidewalk in places. The dam, race and pumping station are an interesting stop, located at the north end of the Riverwalk section, just north of downtown South Bend. A former railroad bridge is also located on the Riverwalk, now a pedestrian bridge connecting the north and south banks.
